i think we already have four better strikers in benjani, bianchi, bojinov and caicedo.

and i think kitson is better than doyle as well.

i cant think of anyone myself though, dont think we need any strikers. id like some africans to give us some muscle and energy. ive been saying makoun for years, but seems like he's going to arsenal now.

well we have gelson ain't we? btw, i know we don't need strikers but still i want doyle :D also, kitson scores better than him but doyle resembles benjani, if you don't feed him he won't score, unless he's better than benjani

haha, but what i meant by african in a very non pc way is someone like essien who will run all day and outmuscle a player like johnson who may be better technically.

as i'm a turkish person i'd like to say smt about arda. he is really a great player and would love to see him at city. but he's lazy sometimes but i suppose it's because he's like a king at his team. a left midfielder but can also play rm. his stamina isn't so great but he'd do nice at england and probably at newcastle

i know gelson is swiss but i said him as a dm as makoun is and he's a person like you said running all day. essien is a must for every team though. well, fenerbahce has appiah but this season he was out due to injuries and will definitely leave this year, we may have him

well he's not as good as left compared to the right because he's a guy dribbles inside unlikely petrov because he's right footed and don't have so much great pace but he can pass players and can make nice passes

Gelson's originally from Cape Verde isn't he?

Players I'd like? A right winger, a proven striker and some defensive cover.

SWP, Crouch, Ben Mee.

I think we should try and get Bentley. He seems like the disloyal type that would turn his head at the first sign of a few extra quid. I say let's find out.

Anyone apart from Peter Crouch.
I want someone who can play the ball to Benjani with ease, and I think Ronaldinho should be able to do this, if he could return to full fitness. It just worries me he's been told he can have free reign on the pitch, and the team will be built round him... Not good at all
